Hello, for my first publication I need your help concerning this Calliphoridae which I published in LMDI as being a Bellardia sp of stocky body and rather large in size, well developed spoonbills, bristly setae at the apex of the abdomen and greenish colour of its abdomen and thorax but doubts remain now because in Inaturalist a person identified it to me as being a Pollenia sp. It seems to me to see remains of setae on the sides of the thorax. Is this an optical illusion or a defect in the photo? I'd like your opinion, thank you!

I'm sorry, but I cannot see enough details to make a reliable ID.
Greetings, Eric

Thank you for your reply Eric Kloeckner, the photo isn't very clear it's true, so I'll stick to the subfamily Calliphorinae.
